Need to Do
So how do I desire to do the things I need to do? Then another necessary question, does intention matter? It does if you don’t want bad things to happen… have to brush your teeth or they will fall out regardless if you want to do it. In answer to that question, I must ask…

Stolen Intentions
What we have by default is a set of desires. Our desires are innate traits, flesh and blood rules of survival and well being. I think we established earlier that we have these innately, yes? That we don’t have to learn or consciously choose these? We do indeed want to live. What we lack is…

Culture of the Satyrs
The culture of the satyrs could be expressed as a spirit, one that would have seemed foreign and strange to the native Greeks as Dionysus was to begin with, also. The concept of patron deities to the city states would not be so strange if you think about it. Do our cities not even now…
